IIS and web services information

so far I was able to get versions of all the exe/ocx/dll in a path, able to get all the ODBC DSN, and their settings, able to get the OS version, free memory, reasources etc, and able to get all the task running.

but now I need to figure out how to get information about the IIS version, determine web properties set, and to determine the state of the web services.

any go, is this informatino in registry, if so where, are there API that'll help me get this information, etc.

You need to use the "IIS Admin Objects" and ADSI. Check out msdn.microsoft.com for details, but to give you a starter it goes something like this :

Set tmpIIS = GetObject("IIS://machinename/w3svc/")

etc. etc.

Hmm I would have never known that, I knew if it was an object, I would least think it would have gone somehting like this

set something = server.createobject("object.classname")

thanks, I'll check it out.
